Does Kowalczyk have an opinion on TGF? Options

[live2cd]

Has he been asked in interviews what he thinks of the record? This all reminds me of 1994 when Mötley Crüe went in a completely different direction with a new singer (altho they kept their name - bad move, IMO) and Vince was asked this all the time and vice versa. The ironic thing was that the 1994 Mötley Crüe record was one of their best. Of course, it didnt sell so they brought Vince back, but thats another thread for a different day.....

Im just waiting for an interview like this..

"So, Ed, what do you think about The Gracious Few? Have you listened to the album?"

ok maybe i should have put it differently. i will expand on the idea. putting morals and ethics aside,because they vary between people....all i m saying is this split in the group was a long time in the making and it was obvious reading chads blog about the history of the group that there was pressure by the record labels to produce certain types of music.the four of them were compliant in this digression even if they didnt agree....so they all take a degree of the blame for the failure of their music to have the same impact of their first 3-4 albums...even if ed takes 99.9 % of the blame the others still could have walked away if they felt compromised creatively. so thats how i see it.....sure im an ed lover (whatever that is?) but im a chad, chad and pat lover too.... ed only provided the vocals and damn c,c and p gave the best music that ed will never get with crappy session guys from where ever.... oh and im sure ed has listened to TGF and is saying damn what have i done
